Spam and porn are flooding kbin already (kbin.social)

There is a substantial amount of spam and NSFW posts on the All page coming through already. Most NSFW posts aren't being tagged as such and are coming right through. I am not sure how this can be weathered but we need something in place fairly soon, I feel like we are days away from rivers of bad stuff, especially via some of the federated instances.

EDIT: I personally don't care much about the NSFW aspect, more in the lines of what a newcomer will be seeing when they get to the main page. 99% of the newcomers don't know / care about federation and have no idea how to turn that off. Liability for the server owner is also an element of consideration.

fwiw i blocked the lemmynsfw.com domain from view and I haven't seen a single instance of nsfw since

How do I do that? Under the federation tab and add the instance?

Idk how to do it through the settings UI, I just navigated to (nsfw warning) https://kbin.social/d/lemmynsfw.com (nsfw warning) and pressed the block symbol next to subscribe
